Uber goes nuts with offer notifications until you find the page to turn ALL of them off (quite a few, and broken out by category like Uber Eats vs Uber). The overall app is good enough, it's just a unfortunately spammy.

As a ridiculous example: I took an Uber from an office to the Indianapolis airport then an Uber from the Dallas airport to a hotel for the night. As I'm winding down for the night I get a notification from Uber: "Need a ride back to ${indianapolisOffice}?".
It is somehow weird to see MPC821 in this kind of device. The point of (Power)QUICC line is that the Communications Processor is some kind of RISC/VLIW core, that offloads various communications tasks and has firmware support for various serial telco protocols. I would not be too surprised if MPC821 and MPC860 are in fact the same hardware only with different firmware that somehow bitbangs the LCD interface by (ab)using the SCC channels (original m68k QUICC datasheet mentions that there is a way to make one of the channels behave like Centronics parallel port).

In any case PowerQUICC with LCD interface is a device that is quite obviously meant for something like dektop phone with large LCD, not for tablets.

Quite large usage of PowerQUICC were Cisco 17xx/26xx series routers (with 16xx using m68k QUICC) that were used by many telcos in early 2000's as "SHDSL modems". If you squint enough the m68k QUICC is an entire Cisco 2500 on a single chip (with the added benefit that the QUICC SCC can more or less do scatter gather DMA directly into IOS's particle buffer datastructure, which IIRC was not the case with the Z8530-derived USARTs in 2500).
My question would be if this company runs people repeatedly through exhaustive matrices to diagnose and actually cure root causes or will they follow the healthcare system by giving people drugs to tinker with feedback loops to mimic readings of good health? I am personally done with tinker drugs but if there was an organization that followed my personal rule of no masking symptoms and only curing root causes I would probably be interested, especially if they continually find issues and go as deep as the rabbit holes go, risk rank issues, prioritize the most serious ones and do not give up until there is resolution. The price would make sense to me if this were truly the case. I would see it as a bonus if they did not have to color within the lines of the AMA, FSMB, FDA and other organizations that limit what doctors can do or if I could waiver out of them. i.e. Allow for the fictional Dr. House to become something ever so slightly closer to a reality.
Usage-based trials are much harder to enforce reliably.

Making moves like these in an obvious attempt at pulling up the ladder behind them, while saying that "startup culture" is still important in ML. As usual don't believe anything sama is saying.
Well italy allows the openly racist newspaper "libero" to be open. I don't think FUD is a main concern when blocking websites.
> I'm not defending C++.

Right, but you were asking what advantage Rust has over C++, which is what I'm trying to explain. (If you had instead asked what advantage C++ has over Rust, I'd have given a very different answer!)

> It's a beast of a language, and takes a lot of experience and self-discipline to use without creating bugs that are hard to find.

Rust makes creating a certain class of these hard-to-find bugs much harder.

Stating you own it, and then licensing it away in the sentence after to give yourself irrevocable rights seems duplicitous.

Neat looking service though.
I think we're using the term “mathematical ability” in different ways. For me, it's an ability to prove a theorem, not to solve a differential equation.
Even where there hasn't been a formal policy I usually haven't had a hard time getting anything that costs, say, $50.
Just in case someone reading this, anyone know what block-size one should use for ddrescue on a DVD? Sectors are 2kiB, but are grouped into ECC groups of 32kiB. Is it possible to read a single sector without error without also reading the entire ECC group without error?
I'm not willing to fight for Ukraine but I am willing to support them. If my country was at risk of being ruled by the thugs in the Kremlin, I would fight for it and I would welcome support from anyone.

Your line of argument (idiotic though it is ) is used frequently by trolls because it is very effective at shutting down conversation. You can't threaten violence directly but you would if you could. You are supporting a regime that kills, rapes and kidnaps children (you will deny this because you are a paid troll but it's absolutely clear from your arguments that you do)

Anyway, you are clearly delighted to get more opportunities to repeat it so I will shut up now.
Professors are the worst scum. These are the same people who'd become expert witnesses for the tobacco industry in the 60's, advocating risky financial instruments in 2000s, requiring DEI statements in 2010s, and generally fighting like dogs over morsels of defense funding.
I think I have seen this model before, in the days of shareware. Offhand, I don’t remember the name of the tool.

A downside of this is that if you don’t choose the right metric, people might burn through a lot of their uses due to mistakes. Like, to use your input files example, imagine someone accidentally selects a huge directory with more than 100 files and then end up with no free uses left.

Some of this also comes down to overall UX design too, of course.
There's a website... but no server?

That tax is literally crypto's compute demands. Making a trustless system is a lot of work (and hopefully it's not necessary).
It really depends on the situation. For a mature, mass-produced product going into sensitive places, sure, disable it before it goes into the field. Same for very security-focused hardware.

But most of the "pizza-box-shaped" things I've worked on in telecom have jtag enabled even when in the field. I've never thought about it much, but to actually get to a jtag interface requires a level of physical access that would be far-fetched unless you're talking about "James-Bond-level" bad actors or "inside-job" people who are already entrusted with an enormous amount of privileges anyway.

JTAG is super useful for troubleshooting and in general, for things that aren't throw aways and that can be repaired, re-calibrated, or re-configured, it makes sense to keep it available.
Because another similar project uses a standard license and doesn't require this sort of friction.
If you "need" to use for the second time, it is lost revenue to cover that in free trial. Free trial are to give uninterested user interest in the product. If the need is already there, free trial can only make the product impression worse.
Yeah, but we know where rayiner lives -- the US -- where it is not legalized. So we can refute his specific claim.
I had something similar once but editing "Location" in https://riders.uber.com/profile fixed it for me. YMMV
Nicotine acts as stimulate and appetite suppressant to some people.

But since cigarettes also accelerate aging, you don't stay "hot" for too long.
Maybe to add on: whether it is pollinator friendly, when it blooms (not sure if this differs from fruiting, but I think so?), whether it is edible, part of a guild (if so, show other guild members)
An acquisition, yes that would be concerning. A partnership, however, I can get behind
It's not bizarre, it's a common pattern that people understand and easy to implement. Most people will accept it for that reason even if it's not ideal.

I have a lower tier that users can move to which is an effective filter to see who really wants to move forward, since our set up & initial support costs are relatively high also on trials. So that works well, even if we make a loss on smaller tiers it's a sign of commitment.

> I have moved to Traefik from NGINX aswell because of the built-in support for DNS challenge and wildcard cert. I myself spent many hours trying to get it working for my domain I use at work.

Certbot has plugins that directly support many DNS registrars, and can automate configuration of Nginx. Using, for example, the CloudFlare plugin for DNS validation combined with the Nginx plugin for local config would solve your problem readily.
Subsidized health insurance is tied to employment with subsidies probably at about the 50% level on average.

... for things that take longer than that to test. That's rather obvious. There a lot of software that can be evaluated for fit in a couple of hours, especially of a desktop/installable variety.
https://doubleloop.app seems to be trying to do this, though they definitely seem to be targeting companies way past their MVP and something more like series A and up co's that are having trouble scaling their product strategy
This is not the case. From Palmer's Twitter:

"Pulsar is one of several Anduril products that has been undercover for years. It has already been deployed to multiple AORs across continents at fixed sites, on ground vehicles, and in aircraft.

RFML (Radio Frequency Machine Learning) is a game-changer for electronic warfare."
It's more capacity than just pumped hydro of identical head x volume: even if we ignore the "compressed spring" of the air involved, charging would require at least the energy for lifting the water plus the energy for heating up their heat source. If you close a valve in the water connection, then pop open the air pressure vessel letting all energy still in the compressed gas you to waste, you'd still have the heat storage, and you could let the water rush into the lower reservoir through a turbine, harvesting the entire energy contained in the water (minus inefficiency). So it's definitely more, the heat and the gas discharge we just wasted.

The question is how much more, whether the symmetry suggested by the balanced state implies 2x energy storage or not.

Another mental model to further separate the two storage media (water lift and air compression) is this: you could charge separately, first raising the water with a pump, with the dry cavity at ambient pressure via an open connection to daylight, then seal the cavity an charge it as a compression vessel in the non-isobaric way. I still can't decide between trusting the "balance implies 2x" intuition or not, but it should be easy enough to calculate. At least the thought experiments show that it can't be 1x the energy stored by lifting water alone.

I consider starting with "let's do compressed air energy storage" as a given, the "do it by pumped hydro" does not come into play because pressure vessels are hard, it comes into play because building compressors and turbines that have good efficiency over a wide range of pressure is hard.
How does one map 6000 plants to 6000 products across other websites?

Is it done via some loose matching of keywords which is not verified by hand, or is there some kind of global identification system that is used by each of the sites?

Or is it done in collaboration with the sites?
Mad man. Even on plain JavaScript.
I wasn't making an analogy, just pointing out another time when the definition of what was and wasn't a war had real world consequences for people on the ground.

But I would say two things: First, not only Catholics were targeted during the Troubles. If tear gas is used to dispel a riot then it not only those involved on both sides but also anyone down wind from it. My mother lost her eyesight from tear gas related injuries because she had to walk past a flash point daily on her return from work.

Secondly, while citizens of Northern Ireland are British by birth they were also entitled by birth to Irish citizenship after 1956.
Well, they got to make money somehow.
Firefox also has ads now.
You're overly optimistic.
If you'll excuse my departure from what is normal lexicon for this site, I believe that without pre-emptive regulation on AI technology advancement and mergers the "wait and see" phase quickly becomes a "fuck around and find out" phrase.

Regulatory bodies have long been behind on understanding of technology, for example for the first few decades of world wide web advancements (and I would argue even now). I don't think we can afford a reactionary lag time with a technology capable of so profoundly transforming our societies.

I hope we can nudge the developments in a positive direction before there is an all-out AI arms race. I understand the nuances in balancing regulating your own country's AI efforts with making sure you are not outstripped. Perhaps we need something akin to the international treaties dedicated to avoid a colonization dash of outer space.
> I come from a background of high-trust societies

You mentioned the concept of 'high trust societies'. Assuming you are referring to one or the other, how long ago did Western European, or East Asian countries transition from authoritarian, anti-democratic regimes to being regarded as high trust societies?

In my opinion, it seems that many of these high trust societies were the exact opposite within living memory. Which would make me even more skeptical and cautious, not more trusting.

The US might get flak for our system, but it has been around and survived world wars, civil wars, etc. Our inherent distrust of "big government" has a track record of preserving a functional democracy longer than any other system. And the outcome has been a highly competitive and successful economy that hasn't been replicated elsewhere.

I would say many of the labs+foundation organizations are functioning in a noneventful fine way around their protocols. Other bounty systems are functioning fine noneventfully. Research firms as well. Private equity and hedge funds. Other institutional financial firms. Teams maintaining battle tested protocols.

Its just such a bizarre question to me, with my lack of answer being seen as an indictment validating everyone else's own…. ignorance? Whats the standard for legit? This is an article about changing a terms of service unscrupulously. Most tech companies that are respected have granted themselves the right to do that, and we debate that specific company’s policy and their leadership as individuals. “Legit” would be seen as a juvenile question towards those companies as they do 100 different things, some well, some controversial.

Most of those above organizations are employers, some of the ones with tokens compensate comparatively to FAANGs or way higher if the token grants appreciated in value. They have good relationships with all their stakeholders and their mission or products for their community.

Hope it inspires other people to ask a more intelligent question at the same standard they do of other industries.
or you know, a lambda. or fargate. Both much easier than worrying about pm2 or k8s.
I think this is a mix of cultural/legal. In Switzerland (people tend to behave in a community-sane manner) and Czechia (strick enforcing) people seem to be sticking to the limits. In Poland it was usually 10-20kmph above the limit because "I drive safe", however recently a new law was passed that on the one hand unified limits (we had 50kmph during the day and 60kmph in the night for the within city general limits) and they increased fines for breaking the law and AFAIR number of accidents dropped quite a lot...

Schedule 3 is a lower standard for researchers and prescribers but it does not fundamentally change the legal status of recreational, self-elected use. Other class 3 drugs include e.g., ketamine, a weird amphetamine (benzphetamine), and some drugs with the opioid codeine. None of these are legalized for recreational use. And my impression is that sentencing guidelines for marijuana just specify it by name rather than relying on its former schedule 1 status. It's a move in the right direction, but only barely.
Yes?

In any form of hash function, cryptography field, or information warfare, five years is an enormous length of time.

That means "somebody" in humanity has been brute force algorithm generating improved integer hash functions for the last half decade.

For all I know, Google, NVidia, Microsoft, NSA, Spetssvyaz, 3PLA, and Unit 8200 may have been in an integer hash function generation arms race for the last half decade.

Long Reuters article today on drones, and how the US is floundering (they're just not spending as much money as people want). [1] However, if drone can dodge better than enemy can shoot drone, then integer hash function is suddenly not "civilian". Missiles have known this forever. Talk to the MIRV industry.

I am a native English speaker raised in Washington DC.

I am literally pointing out that Wayland enthusiasts love to gang on X11 as "dead" as a put-down and anybody who still uses it is evil or something. It's a toxic attitude that I've seen a lot here. It should ... pardon the metaphor .... die.
Yes, that should not be surprising at all to anybody with a minimum of knowledge in statistics.

Neurons in MLPs are linear models, and KANs simply use basis expansions for splines. That's exactly the same trick that was used to make additive models, ie modeling arbitrary smooth non-linear effects within the linear regression framework. Known since 1989.

Not ranting towards you in particular but rather modern ML
academic community.
It is typical nonsense of a one-sided view of someone who wants to say:
"My goal justifies any means."
With all the typical justifications of such goals.
The big problem in the US is that the same reasoning that is used to design roads where speed is expected (cars are going fast, a static pole means the car ends up wrapped around like a pretzel around the static pole, make the pole break away so the driver can survive) is applied to cities where speed isn't expected and there are people not protected by a metal cage walking around.

Streets and roads must be designed differently, but I see stroads in the US that are multilane roads with the only nod to safety towards anyone outside a car being low posted speed limits, incongruent with the design safe speed of the road itself.
Customer satisfaction and retention for Tesla cars is very high, so it seems like they are producing a good car actually.

FSD is working quite good if you check what people are posting online.
I had much of the same issues early on in my Traefik experience. Things like using TLS-01 validation but not having DNS records set before config was applied would cause a lot of frustration. Like you, I was frustrated with the amount of logging I was getting. I eventually learned that not having DNS configured appropriately would lead validation attempts to fail after N unsuccessful attempts, and LE would refuse to do another TLS-01 validation for a while, which sounds like the kind of issue you were having.

After moving to DNS-01 validation, which comes with the added benefit of letting me cut certs for services that aren't publicly exposed with way less orchestration required than with TLS-01 style validation, my experience was suddenly much better. Assuming the DNS provider is working (and if it's not, you're hopefully getting an API error from them before LE attempts to validate the record, the failure state happens well before any check failure backoffs happen at LE. At this point, regardless of whether I'm using Traefik, Caddy, Nginx, or any other reverse proxy, I'm pretty committed to only using DNS-01 based validation from LetsEncrypt from now on, or if I have to do TLS-01 based validation, to make darn sure things are right the first time with the Staging API first.

Which, speaking of, if you cut a Staging cert with LE via Traefik, there's no good way to invalidate the staging cert. You have to munge the ACME JSON to remove the cert and restart Traefik (could maybe do a SIGHUP? didn't try) to get it to pickup the changes.

All said, lots of weird silent failures and behaviors, but the biggest pains are making dependent service errors opaque.
I understand what you're saying, but your claim seems misleading to me.

Compressing air absolutely does store energy. It takes work to compress it, and work will be done when it is allowed to expand.

Yes, one way of measuring the stored energy is by the resulting increased temperature. Compressing air necessarily raises its temperature. And then if you want to you can transfer that heat elsewhere, go ahead. That's how air conditioners and refrigerators work, after all.

But in the basic case, it seems entirely accurate to say that compressing air does actually store energy. Just like raising a heavy object against gravity stores energy.
I love BigQuery, but they do charge you for CPU slots/processing. It's a great deal to not have to manage all that stuff though.
Yes but how about answering the question because lives depend on it. What should Israel do? Live with Hamas and the 80% of Palestinians who support them? Give up and move ten million people (including some ~20% Muslims & Arabs) to somewhere else? Where? Let's get serious! Again, what to do? How about a constructive response including your advice to Israel under these circumstances. I have no dog in the fight, criticize Israel how you like (undoubtedly much of it justified) but what's the solution? If there is none forthcoming, and there has not, then we move to Clauswitz. Whatever he meant with his famous dictum, that says there is no alternative.
Appalling, much like the Ukraine/Russia horror show.
Good point. If you look at the Title 3 cases further down that page you'll see that they do have a relatively broad interpretation of "open to the public", e.g. an online test-prep provider and an online grocery-delivery site. It isn't really clear to me who's included under that category, but it's certainly a significant proportion of popular websites.
> A lot (most? all?) primary-residence home loans in the US are non-recourse, meaning that you aren't liable for the deficit - you only lose the house.

This is wild. In Canada not only do we all take interest rate risk every 5 years maximum as we can’t lock in for longer (which seems to make our whole society less robust), we can’t refinance early if rates drop without massive penalties eliminating any incentive to do so, but all of our mortgages are full recourse.

I can’t believe how much worse this seems, on a societal level, than the US.
I'm glad you saw the capacity of humor in my pun.
Tnx. That's helpful to know.
Based of your tl;dr would you say they that the original assertion was true in practice, that they generally "can't publicly gather to protest Israel's actions either, not legally anyway."
From the quote:

While the ACA filled a lot of gaps, it's still possible to find yourself without insurance and without any insurer who will take you on - or being unable to afford it (which is what unemployment tends to do to people...), especially if you're above the cut-off limits for state and federal aid.
